The Leverage We Needed

The forbidden temple seemed… oddly normal.

Nothing was out of place or had any sense of eerie mystery that it had when Lilo had first spent the night here.

Aside from the creepy murals and mutilated sculptures here and there, it was all pretty much the same as in the visions of the spire before it fell.

Soda was able to help the cohort navigate his old home by relaying information to Lilo but no matter how hard they had searched nothing seemed to be of use for them to use as leverage.

That was of course, until they decided to move on to the temple once the citedel was searched thoroughly.

The temple was of a different color. More of an emerald green and the statues of hero's were left untouched, remaining the same as it did in Lilo's dreams.

It was just as vast and majestic as the one in the spire of peace, with high ceilings and sky lights that showed glimpses of the heavens.

There was one very obvious distinction though.
